Hello HP community,

 

hope you know what I should do.

 

I'm getting error from HP Safe Guard after each reboot saying:

 

"The program can't start because VCRUNTIME140.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this program"

 

I did that but didn't help.

 

 

Any thoughts ?

Hi,

 

Try reinstalling the vc redistributable on the following link - you should install both the 32bit and 64bit versions.
